Untilthen, it’s being tested with a set of more than 20 businesses, though other advertisers can apply to be testers too.

The initiative has revealed Snapchat’s desire to enter into the mainstream advertising marketing, making it easier for more advertisers to spend money on the platform.

#Snapchat Mobile Dashboard – View and share ad creative as it will be seen by Snapchat users, review live campaign performance, edit and pause campaigns and receive notifications about key metrics from within the Snapchat consumer app.

With it, Snap Inc. is prepared to receive ad dollars from and cater to smaller businesses, not just giant brands. However, buying video snap Ads has never been easier and its Ad-manager and mobile dashboard will be an appreciated addition for marketers and advertisers around the world. Above all, the self-serve ad manager will be free with no mark-up.
